CT Real Estate Housing Market Report | September - October 2025




Key Insights for Buyers and Sellers

The Rocky Hill market continues to be seller-friendly, but signs of moderation are emerging. Home values are still rising, but pace is cooling. Inventory remains relatively tight, and demand, while solid, appears more measured. Sellers retain the advantage in well-priced, well-positioned homes; buyers can still succeed when prepared, selective, and responsive.

Market Performance Overview

  • The average home value in Rocky Hill sits near $402,836, showing year-over-year appreciation of around 7.8 %.

  • For ZIP code 06067, the median list price in late August was $361,583, with a median listing home value of ~$399,102.

  • In August 2025, homes sold for a median price of $372,500, up ~0.9 % compared to the same period last year.

  • The typical time on market in August was ~14 days, reflecting slightly slower velocity versus earlier in the year.

Inventory & Market Conditions

  • Inventory remains constrained. As of late August, there were about 30 for-sale listings in the 06067 area, with ~17 new listings entering the market.

  • While supply is limited, the modest increase in new listings is giving buyers a bit more room to evaluate options.

  • The ratio of sale price to list price remains above 100 %, though the margin above asking has slightly narrowed.

  • Multiple-offer situations are still common for well-priced homes but seem less aggressive than earlier in 2025.

Market Insights & Buyer/Seller Considerations

Buyers should:

  • Be preapproved and ready to act swiftly.

  • Focus on properties in strong condition or in desirable neighborhoods to maximize competitiveness.

  • Include clean, straightforward offers (limited contingencies, strong terms) to stand out.

Sellers should:

  • Price with precision. Overpricing carries more risk as the market begins to cool.

  • Stage and market homes aggressively. Presentation can tip negotiations in your favor.

  • Consider timing: fall listings often attract fewer competing offers, making strong marketing and listing placement critical.

What This Means for You

For Buyers: There’s still opportunity—this is not a panic market. Be prepared, act decisively when the right property hits, and lean on local insight to identify value.
For Sellers: You remain in a favorable position, especially in sought-after pockets. But your success will depend more than ever on smart pricing, staging, and marketing to stand out in a slightly less frenzied fall environment.

Bottom Line

Rocky Hill’s housing market is evolving. While values continue to rise (~7.8 % YoY) and inventory is limited, the pace of sales is slowing and margins above asking are contracting. Sellers still hold an edge—especially for well-presented homes—but buyers with preparation and selectivity can still find success. The fall season likely brings fewer buyers, so optimizing pricing and marketing is critical to maintain intensity in your listing.
